The effects of period mutations and light on the activity rhythms of Drosophila melanogaster.

Journal of biological rhythms - 1 Sept 1995

Power J M, Ringo J M, Dowse H B

Abstract excerpt

Strains of Drosophila melanogaster homozygous for alleles of the period gene (perO, perL, perS, and per+) were reared for multiple generations either in light:dark cycles (LD), continuous illumination (LL), or chronic darkness (DD). The locomotor activity of adult flies from these cultures was monitored in either LL or DD. Flies that were reared and tested in DD had a lower proportion of individuals with normal...
